Lantern Pharma Reports Complete Response in Heavily Pre-Treated Lymphoma Patient with LP-284 in Phase 1 Clinical Trial
DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Lantern Pharma Inc. (NASDAQ: LTRN), a clinical-stage oncology company leveraging its proprietary RADR® artificial intelligence (AI) platform to systematically transform drug discovery paradigms, today announces that a heavily pretreated patient with aggressive Grade 3 non-germinal center B-cell diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) achieved a complete metabolic response in the ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial of LP-284. This represents the first complete response observed with LP-284 and displays profound clinical activity in one of the most therapeutically challenging hematologic cancers. This extraordinary clinical observation represents a transformative moment for our computationally guided, therapeutic development paradigm Share The RADR®-driven, AI approach enables Lantern to rapidly determine mechanisms of action of any cancer focused molecule, identify biomarker-driven subpopulations and optimize combination strategies for the clinical setting. The 41-year-old patient had previously failed three aggressive treatment regimens over 18 months over the last 15 months. These included: standard R-CHOP/Pola-R-CHP chemotherapy, CAR-T cell therapy (liso-cel), and CD3xCD20 bispecific antibody therapy (glofitamab). Following enrollment in April 2025, the patient achieved complete metabolic response with non-avid lesions after completing just two 28-day cycles of LP-284 administered on days one, eight, and 15. This remarkable clinical outcome supports LP-284's synthetic lethal mechanism and is an initial step towards a potential new paradigm for treating refractory aggressive lymphomas and B-cell malignancies. Paradigm-Shifting Observation of Complete Response in Therapeutically Exhausted Patient 'This extraordinary clinical observation represents a transformative moment for our computationally guided, therapeutic development paradigm,' said Panna Sharma, President and CEO of Lantern Pharma. 'Our RADR® platform's systematic analysis of molecular vulnerabilities enabled us to rapidly advance LP-284 from computational concept to a clinical milestone in a patient in under three years at approximately $3 million — demonstrating how AI-driven precision has the promise to fundamentally reshape pharmaceutical innovation. This complete metabolic response in a patient who had exhausted all conventional therapeutic options strongly supports our strategic thesis that computational approaches can unlock previously inaccessible therapeutic opportunities.' LP-284, a computationally optimized next-generation acylfulvene, was systematically developed with guidance from Lantern's RADR® platform to exploit synthetic lethal interactions in cancer cells harboring specific DNA damage repair deficiencies. The compound represents a fundamentally different therapeutic strategy with the potential to preferentially target malignant cells while preserving healthy tissue function — a precision approach aimed at delivering transformative clinical benefit for patients who have failed multiple prior treatment modalities. Potential to Address a Critical Therapeutic Void in Refractory DLBCL This patient's clinical journey exemplifies the devastating trajectory of aggressive DLBCL in the refractory setting. Despite achieving an initial complete metabolic response with CAR-T therapy (liso-cel) at day 30, the patient experienced disease progression by day 90. Subsequent treatment with the CD3xCD20 bispecific antibody glofitamab resulted in progressive disease with multifocal new lesions. At study entry on the LP-284-Phase 1 trial in April 2025, the patient presented with extensive multifocal bony lesions across thoracic and lumbar spine locations and hips — representing an extremely challenging clinical scenario. The achievement of complete metabolic response with non-avid lesions following just two cycles of LP-284 therapy represents a potential future paradigm-shifting alternative for treating therapeutically exhausted DLBCL patients. This encouraging outcome underscores LP-284's potential to address critical gaps in the therapeutic armamentarium for patients who have failed both conventional and cutting-edge immunotherapeutic approaches. Advancing Strategic Clinical Development and Global Expansion The complete metabolic response achievement positions LP-284 for accelerated development pathways and strengthens Lantern's strategic position in the competitive hematologic oncology landscape. This clinical milestone provides important confirmation of the company's systematic approach to therapeutic development and creates additional opportunities for international partnership expansion and collaborative research initiatives. Lantern's ongoing Phase 1 dose-escalation study (NCT06132503) is designed to evaluate LP-284's safety profile, optimal dosing parameters, and preliminary efficacy signals across multiple aggressive lymphoma subtypes. The trial's systematic design enables precise evaluation of LP-284's therapeutic potential across genetically defined patient populations, with a current focus on aggressive NHL subtypes including mantle cell lymphoma and high-grade B-cell lymphomas. LP-284's multiple FDA Orphan Drug Designations position the compound for potential expedited regulatory pathways and enhanced market exclusivity frameworks. Transforming Global Oncology Through Computational Precision This clinical development provides important confirmation of the transformative potential of Lantern's RADR® platform, which leverages over 200 billion oncology-focused data points and 200+ machine learning algorithms to assist in systematically identifying and optimizing therapeutic opportunities. The platform's computational efficiency enabled Lantern to rapidly advance the LP-284's program into the clinic in under three years at a cost of approximately $3 million — representing striking development efficiency compared to traditional pharmaceutical paradigms. The complete metabolic response achievement positions LP-284 to seek a future role within a global blood cancer market focused on B-cell cancer that is estimated at $4 billion annually, with DLBCL representing the largest aggressive lymphoma subtype affecting approximately 200,000 patients globally each year. The critical unmet need in refractory/relapsed settings represents a substantial commercial opportunity for innovative therapeutic approaches that can deliver meaningful clinical benefit to therapeutically exhausted patient populations. Next Steps and Future Development Lantern plans to continue enrollment in the Phase 1 trial while closely monitoring the responding patient and other potential future patients for durability of response and efficacy signals. The company anticipates providing additional clinical updates as the trial progresses and more patients reach evaluable timepoints. The complete response achievement positions LP-284 for potential accelerated development pathways and creates opportunities for strategic partnerships as Lantern advances its synthetic lethal portfolio toward later-stage clinical trials. About LP-284 LP-284 is an investigational next-generation acylfulvene designed to exploit synthetic lethal interactions in cancer cells with DNA damage repair deficiencies. Developed with guidance from Lantern's AI platform RADR®, LP-284 represents a novel therapeutic approach with potential to address critical gaps in the treatment of relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and other hematologic malignancies. The compound is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial (NCT06132503) to determine its safety profile, optimal dosing, and potential activity in patients with aggressive NHL subtypes who have failed standard therapies. LP-284 has received multiple Orphan Drug Designations from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, including designations for mantle cell lymphoma and high-grade B-cell lymphomas, recognizing its potential to address significant unmet medical needs in rare cancer populations.

Lung Cancer Patient in Lantern Pharma's Harmonic Trial Shows Durable Complete Response in Target Cancer Lesions with Survival Continuing for Nearly Two Years
DALLAS, June 16, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Lantern Pharma Inc. (NASDAQ: LTRN), an artificial intelligence (AI) company developing targeted cancer therapies using its proprietary RADR® AI platform, today announces remarkable clinical observations for a patient in Lantern's Phase 2 HARMONIC™ clinical trial. A 70-year-old never-smoker with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has achieved a durable complete response in their target cancer lesions following treatment with LP-300 in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy. Importantly, the patient continues to show sustained survival benefits after nearly two years. The patient, who had previously failed three lines of prior therapy including Keytruda (pembrolizumab) with chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and the EGFR inhibitor Tagrisso (osimertinib), initially demonstrated a partial response with a 57% reduction in tumor volume after completion of the HARMONIC™ lead-in cohort enrollment in Q3 of 2024. The patient subsequently demonstrated a complete response in the target cancer lesions, specifically the lung and adrenal gland lesions by Q1 of 2025. This type of complete response in the target cancer lesions is atypical for this advanced and recurrent NSCLC after multiple rounds of therapy. "This remarkable case exemplifies several of the things we have hoped to observe with LP-300 in the HARMONIC trial," said Panna Sharma, President and CEO of Lantern Pharma. "To see a heavily pre-treated patient not only achieve a complete response in their target cancer lesions but maintain that response with excellent quality of life is truly extraordinary. This outcome provides important confirmation of our data and AI-driven approach to drug development and gives us growing confidence as we advance toward potential future registration-enabling studies for this underserved patient population that has no approved treatment options after failing targeted kinase therapies." Notably, the patient has shown no clinically significant adverse drug reactions or dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) over 21 cycles of treatment. By February 2025, imaging showed continued complete response in the primary target lesions with only scar tissue remaining at the site of the lung cancer lesions, and the disappearance of the adrenal gland cancer lesion, demonstrating the profound and durable nature of the therapeutic response. Growing Global Cancer Type with No Approved Options After Kinase Therapy FailureThe proportion of never-smoking patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has been significantly increasing globally over the past 30 years, from 15% in the 1970s to 33% in the 2000s. Lung cancer in never smokers is the fifth leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally, according to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). Never-smokers represent a distinct subset of lung cancer patients1 with unique genetic profiles and limited treatment options, estimated to represent a $4+ billion annual market opportunity globally. The HARMONIC™ trial is evaluating LP-300, advanced with Lantern's proprietary RADR® AI platform, in combination with pemetrexed and carboplatin in never-smokers with advanced NSCLC who have progressed after treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Exceptional Clinical Observations in a Challenging Patient Population With Significant Unmet NeedsThis case represents a particularly significant observation given the patient's extensive treatment history, including with both immuno-oncology agents and targeted kinase therapies, and the challenging nature of advanced NSCLC in non-responsive never-smokers. The sustained response over nearly two years, combined with excellent tolerability, underscore LP-300's potential to be a transformative treatment option for this underserved patient population and is demonstrative of the mechanistic rationale for this drug-candidate. "The sustained response we're observing in this patient, particularly after three lines of prior standard of care treatments, is remarkable and provides strong support for LP-300's therapeutic potential," said Dr. Reggie Ewesuedo, Vice President of Clinical Development at Lantern Pharma. "The fact that this patient has tolerated 21 cycles of treatment without clinically significant adverse drug reactions and has achieved meaningful durable response reinforces our confidence in the promise of this drug-candidate in this patient population." About Lantern Pharma's HARMONIC™ TrialThe HARMONIC™ clinical trial is a Phase 2 study (NCT05456256) evaluating LP-300 in combination with standard chemotherapy (pemetrexed/carboplatin) for never-smokers with advanced lung adenocarcinoma who have experienced progression or intolerance to prior tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. The trial is designed to assess whether LP-300, when added to chemotherapy, improves progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) compared to the current standard-of-care chemotherapy doublet alone. The multicenter, open-label, randomized study has planned enrollment of approximately 90 patients across sites in the United States, Japan, and Taiwan. The trial compares LP-300 in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in a 2:1 randomization, with co-primary endpoints of progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Upcoming Milestones and Clinical DevelopmentLantern expects to continue reporting clinical updates from the HARMONIC trial throughout 2025 as enrollment progresses across multiple sites. The company anticipates providing an additional data update from the randomized expansion phase in the second half of 2025. The never-smoker NSCLC population represents a significant and growing unmet medical need, with no therapies specifically approved for this patient subset. Approximately 15-20% of all lung cancer patients in the U.S. are never-smokers, with significantly higher rates in Asian populations, where up to 50% of new lung cancer diagnoses occur in never-smokers. About LP-300LP-300 was advanced with Lantern's proprietary RADR® AI platform to aid in the confirmation of combination synergies and the proposed mechanism of action. The lead-in cohort of the Phase 2 HARMONIC trial demonstrated an initial 86% clinical benefit rate and 43% objective response rate, leading to the current randomized expansion phase.2 About Lantern PharmaLantern Pharma (NASDAQ: LTRN) is an AI company transforming the cost, pace, and timeline of oncology drug discovery and development.

The multicenter, open-label, randomized study has planned enrollment of approximately 90 patients across sites in the United States, Japan, and Taiwan. The trial compares LP-300 in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in a 2:1 randomization, with co-primary endpoints of progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Upcoming Milestones and Clinical Development Lantern expects to continue reporting clinical updates from the HARMONIC trial throughout 2025 as enrollment progresses across multiple sites. The company anticipates providing an additional data update from the randomized expansion phase in the second half of 2025. The never-smoker NSCLC population represents a significant and growing unmet medical need, with no therapies specifically approved for this patient subset. Approximately 15-20% of all lung cancer patients in the U.S. are never-smokers, with significantly higher rates in Asian populations, where up to 50% of new lung cancer diagnoses occur in never-smokers. About LP-300 LP-300 was advanced with Lantern's proprietary RADR ® AI platform to aid in the confirmation of combination synergies and the proposed mechanism of action. The lead-in cohort of the Phase 2 HARMONIC trial demonstrated an initial 86% clinical benefit rate and 43% objective response rate, leading to the current randomized expansion phase. 2 About Lantern Pharma Lantern Pharma (NASDAQ: LTRN) is an AI company transforming the cost, pace, and timeline of oncology drug discovery and development.

Lantern Pharma Reports First Quarter 2025 Financial Results and Business Updates
DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Lantern Pharma Inc. (NASDAQ: LTRN), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company leveraging its proprietary RADR ® artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) platform to transform the cost, pace, and timeline of oncology drug discovery and development, today announced operational highlights and financial results for the first quarter 2025 ended March 31, 2025, and provided an update on its portfolio of AI-driven drug candidates, the RADR ® platform for precision oncology drug development enhancements, and other operational progress. "This quarter represents a pivotal inflection point in our clinical and technological development. As we approach full enrollment in our LP-184 Phase 1a trial and prepare for an additional data readout for our LP-300 Harmonic Trial, including initial data from our Asian expansion cohort, we are positioning ourselves for productive discussions with potential biopharma partners. Simultaneously, our RADR ® AI platform has reached a crucial development milestone with a broad and validated range of oncology drug development modules powered by hundreds of billions of datapoints. These advancements further validate our AI-driven approach to cancer drug development, which is focused on addressing real-world, unmet patient needs while establishing a clear pathway toward commercialization focused on delivering value to patients and shareholders." —Panna Sharma, CEO & President of Lantern Pharma AI-Powered Drug Development Pipeline Highlights: LP-300 Lantern's Phase 2 HARMONIC™ trial for LP-300 continued to advance during Q1 2025 with patients enrolled in Japan and Taiwan and ongoing enrollment in the US. Never-smokers with NSCLC in East Asia represent approximately 33% to 40% of new NSCLC cases as compared to the U.S., where never smokers account for approximately 15% of new NSCLC cases. LP-300 is being evaluated in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy (carboplatin + pemetrexed) in never-smokers with NSCLC adenocarcinoma who have progressed after TKI therapy. The trial is designed to enroll approximately 90 patients across the U.S. and East Asia. Phase 2 Clinical Results: Preliminary data from the Phase 2 U.S. safety, lead-in cohort showed an 86% clinical benefit rate and a 43% objective response rate. Additional patient data from the expansion cohort continues to support, at the current time, a similar patient response and clinical benefit rate trend. Lantern plans on sharing additional results, which will include updated data from patients enrolled in the lead-in cohort and new data from patients in the Asian expansion cohort, during Q3 of 2025. LP-184 LP-184 continued advancements through a Phase 1a trial in multiple solid tumors, which is targeted to finish enrollment during June of 2025. LP-184 has received Fast Track Designations from the FDA for GBM (Glioblastoma Multiforme) and TNBC (Triple Negative Breast Cancer). Additionally, LP-184 has four Rare Pediatric Disease Designations for hepatoblastoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, and malignant rhabdoid tumors, and ATRT (atypical teratoid, rhabdoid tumors). Phase 1a Results: Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics including MTD Determination - The trial has now enrolled through cohort 12, and early indications of clinical activity have been observed at higher dose levels, consistent with preliminary PK data. During Q1 2025, the Safety Review Committee (SRC) along with the Company, made the decision to backfill dose levels 10 and 11 to ensure clarity on the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) while ensuring the safety of study participants, and assessing the clinical activity of the dose to guide future LP-184 clinical trials. Enrollment at dose level 9 and higher has been focused on inclusion of advanced solid tumor patients that have identified DNA damage repair mutations. A broader clinical data update is slated for Q3 of 2025, when complete safety, pharmacokinetic and dose response data along with biomarker correlations is expected to be available. Future Planned Phase 1b/2 Trials: Lantern has recently cleared two clinical trial protocols with the FDA that can provide a path towards a regulatory approval. The first, announced on May 5th, is for a Phase 1b/2 study in TNBC evaluating LP-184 in both a combination regimen with the PARP inhibitor, Olaparib and as monotherapy in the same indication. The FDA has raised no objections to the protocol, and Lantern plans to initiate this trial in both the US and at leading academic cancer centers in Nigeria and India, subject to clinical priorities and funding. The average survival for newly diagnosed, metastatic TNBC is estimated at 8 to 13 months and presents an annual market opportunity in excess of $4 billion USD. The second, announced on May 12th, is for a Phase1b/2 study in a biomarker defined subset of drug-resistant non-small cell lung cancer that has mutations in the STK11 and/or KEAP1 genes. This unique trial is aimed at addressing a critical unmet clinical need in lung cancer care: the median overall survival in newly diagnosed, advanced NSCLC patients with KEAP1 and/or STK11 mutations treated with chemo-immunotherapy averages 15 months, substantially lower than outcomes in mutation negative populations. For patients that fail earlier lines of therapies the overall survival tends to skew even lower at approximately 6.3 months. This represents a market opportunity exceeding $2 billion annually, given the prevalence and poor prognosis for patients with these mutations. Additionally, an investigator-led, exploratory clinical trial of LP-184 for recurrent bladder cancer is planned to begin in Denmark during Q3 of 2025. This clinical trial is designed to test LP-184 as a monotherapy specifically in advanced, recurrent bladder cancer patients with DNA damage repair mutations with the potential to create a path towards data to support usage in the 3rd line setting. RADR ® A.I. Platform: Lantern's proprietary RADR ® platform has grown during Q1 2025 to approximately 200 billion oncology-focused data points across multiple sources (proprietary, collaborative and public) of oncology, molecular, clinical, biochemical, and preclinical datasets. RADR ® continues to play an important role in advancing: drug candidate optimization, development and validation of clinically relevant drug-candidate combinations, identification of mechanism(s) of action, identification of optimal indications for drug-candidate advancement, creation of biomarker signatures to support patient selection, optimization and characterization of molecular features, and prediction of the blood brain barrier (BBB) potential of a molecule. AI and platform-driven insights contributed to LP-184's clinical biomarker strategy, including a qPCR assay for PTGR1 to guide patient stratification, and aided in the identification of multiple indications leading to orphan and rare pediatric disease designations. Additionally, RADR ® also underpinned combination strategies, such as LP-184 with PARP inhibitors and LP-284 with rituximab. Future plans and proposed developments include additional collaborations with leading oncology development groups and biopharma companies in both adult and pediatric cancers. Lantern expects to publicly release multiple modules (validated A.I. frameworks) that can be accessed by Lantern collaborators and the research community for specific needs in oncology drug development—such as prediction of certain molecular features including the BBB penetrability of a molecule, identification of potential cancer indications that are more likely to show a higher sensitivity to a molecule or drug-candidate, and aiding the development of optimized paths to demonstrate potential therapeutic utility of a molecule in a rare cancer. Starlight Therapeutics: Lantern's wholly owned subsidiary focused on CNS and brain cancers, Starlight Therapeutics, made key advances towards the design, development and approval of adult and pediatric trials, including potential investigator-initiated clinical trials for STAR-001. LP-184, referred to as STAR-001 for CNS indications, was highlighted at the Society for Neuro-Oncology (SNO) 2024 conference, with a Phase 1b/2 trial in recurrent GBM anticipated to begin in late 2025 subject to successful additional funding and clearance of the protocol. Additionally, further preclinical studies led by Lantern's collaborators at Johns Hopkins provided independent confirmation of LP-184 hypersensitivity in rare pediatric brain tumors, in support of a clinical trial being planned with a pediatric consortium in CNS tumors. Additional Operational Highlights: Lantern also advanced a proprietary BBB permeability prediction algorithm with a favorable PCT patent application report, advancing our AI leadership with Lantern's algorithms now holding five of the top ten positions on Therapeutic Data Commons (TDC) Leaderboard. The company is developing a publicly available tool to predict the BBB permeability of any molecule that can be readily accessed by the research and drug development community, which is planned for initial launch during the second half of 2025. First Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights: Balance Sheet: Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were approximately $19.7 million as of March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $24.0 million as of December 31, 2024. R&D Expenses: Research and development expenses were approximately $3.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $4.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. G&A Expenses: General and administrative expenses were approximately $1.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, essentially unchanged from approximately $1.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
